Revered Tibetan Buddhist teacher Khenpo Tsewang will be returning to Portland this September for a series of three events on the nature of the enlightened mind.

Dzogchen, the Great Perfection, is the ultimate teaching of all the enlightened ones. The first event will be a public lecture on the famous Dzogchen teaching by Longchenpa called "You are the Eyes of the World" on Friday night (9/16) starting at 7:30 pm, located at the Portland Insight Meditation Center (PIMC). This teaching succintly expresses the heart essence of Dzogchen, directly revealing the primordially pure enlightened nature of one's own mind.

The second event will take place on Saturday (9/17), from 10 AM to 5 PM, and will explore in greater depth these Dzogchen teachings on the primordially pure enlightened nature of our own mind.

The final event is a PadmaSambhava empowerment ceremony scheduled for Sunday, from 7 PM to 9:30 PM. PadmaSambhava is considered to be the second Buddha as well as the Buddha of the degenerate times in which we live. PadmaSambhava's blessings swiftly remove all obstacles and fulfill all wishes. This is a rare opportunity to receive blessings from a genuine enlightened master.
